Things that annoy me about MMA

1. People trying to tell me how it's compelling when two dudes are lying on the floor like a couple salame.

2. Dana White mean-mugging in every UFC pose-off publicity shot. Why do you have a puss on? Get out of there.

3. MMA people slamming boxing and in the same sentence using terms like "octagonside."

4. Referring to punching as "striking." I guess striking means throwing a shitty punch.

I like how Tap Out tools bash boxing, yet MMA steals everything from it. From P4P lists, ring girls, boxing phrases ect

i dont mind MMA but i just cant stand them trying to compare it to boxing. so many people have told me that boxing is dying because MMA is getting big. they obviously dont realize that boxing has been slowly dying since before MMA got big. it has nothing to do with the downfall of boxing.

I like the good bjj guys because they usually go for submissions in interesting ways. A lot of the wrestlers are boring and uncomfortable to watch. As for why it's called "striking," it's because it's more than just punching. There's legs, elbows, knees, etc.

Bloodsport, Kickboxer FTW

Randy left the cage minus a few teeth from that kick.He's so old he walked right into it.

I just hate media idiots like Kevin Iole ect who just spew bullshit about death of boxing and the rise of MMA

Joe Rogan. he's like the 'worser' version of Lampley

Kevin Iole is a fucking idiot. anyway i'm not a fan of MMA. most MMA professionals are juiced up to the max. it's not a noble art as boxing is. you slip on the canvas and then you have somebody drop their elbow onto your face whilst you're down. gay kicking shit, rolling on the floor hugging eachother for 4 minutes at a time. it just doesn't do it for me. MMA is shining bright now, but Boxing has been glowing warm for centuries. Floyd Mayweather said that haha

For fight fans in general.

Only the GSP fight would have put people off MMA.

Not debating that, 129 was an entertaining card. Had knockouts, blood and excitement.

it did, but the main event flopping hurt it

Ah people will get over it, GSP will get a pass because he's a nice guy.

Idk, it was kind of like Floyd vs Baldomir/DLH

Dominant performance but pissed off a lot of fans with the very boring showcase. They want Diaz vs GSP now
